I chose to play MM and this specific spec because in my mind it's the best spec for an end-game hunter. I based my decisions by mixing many conclusions of forum and theorycrafting posts I've read.

If you have any other relevant gear, please describe it:
I don't have any other gear set but a minor, quite bad pvp gear.

How long have you played WOW?

I have been playing wow for almost 3 years now. However I didn't raid much in TBC and Vanilla.

What is your raiding experience?

TBC:
Karazhan -CLEAR-
Gruul -CLEAR-
Magtheridon -CLEAR-
ZA 4/5
SSC 4/6
TK 2/4

WOTLK:
3.0 -CLEAR-
In Ulduar, siege + the keepers, including some keepers HMs.
ToC 10/25 -CLEAR-
ToGC 10 4/5
ICC10 8/12
ICC25 7/12

Do you have any other characters (server/name/class)?

I have basically played and raided with a warrior in tbc, however I quitted wow when BT came out and gave my account to a friend. In wotlk, I have raided basically only with Addict. I got some alts like a 71 dk and a 46 priest but nothing that is really mentionable.

Previous guilds and why did you leave them?

I played in Spectral Mammoth (a 10man raiding guild) in 3.2 for a month or two before I left the guild to join a then newly formed guild called prosperity. I'm an old guild mate of Yms's.
Prosperity was a good guild and I had a spot in their first core 10man group. I cleared everything in ICC with them (basically what was out bk then) until the guild splitted and disbanded due disagreements between the guild leaders.

Why did you choose us?

I have been looking for a mature, casual/semi-hc and serious 10man guild for cataclysm for ages now, and your ginfo, forum post and website seems quite promising.
I also chose you because the guild leads seems to be formed from quite experienced raiders.

What do you expect from us?

I expect a solid raiding group and friendly but dedicated raiding environment to raid and hang out in. I want to get to know new players and make friends and experience the content cataclysm and wotlk with them. I also expect that the leaders are experienced and know their thing in order to get the best out of everyone.

What do you feel can you contribute with to the guild? I am a dedicated raider and I always bring a focused and good mood into raids. Wiping was my first love. I'm ready to sit out for the guild if that's best for the progress. I also consider myself a loyal and mature player. I'm always ready to improve my playing and to take responsibility in raids. I know my role and my class inside out and am always trying to learn more. I put time and effort to my gaming.

Do you know any players already in the guild? Who?

I don't know anyone from the guild, but the other applicant,yms, is a very familiar face to me.

Do you have a working microphone? I do.

Tell us a little about yourself:

I'm just a regular 17 year old young guy from Finland. I go to high school and hope to graduate some happy and shiny day. I enjoy to eat brown sugar pop-tarts. I play ice-hockey and visit the gym quite often.

*Hand a brown sugar pop-tart*

And no, I'm not trying to bribe anyone.

Nice application, both yours and Yms.

On your part we currently have someone that plays a hunter but I have to confirm to see what his plans are for WotLK and his plans for Cataclysm.

In your case aswell I'll mention that the majority of us are well into our twenties so age could be an issue.
You also came across as mature though so the same thing applies.

I have two questions for you.
Do you have any way for us to see what your current dps is like? Preferably on encounters in ICC.
Maybe a WWS link or perhaps a screenshot of a damage meter and the encounter it was taken at?

Next question would be what are your plans for Cataclysm class wise?

Thanks for showing your interest though and taking the time to write a good application!

Thanks for the positive feed-back.

I hope that my young age doesn't affect your decision about my spot in your guild. I find my self quite mature when it comes to my age. And as Yms said, there will be no issues with parents whining about my playing or what so ever.

Sadly I dont have any screenshots about my dps, but i'll post you one as soon as I pug ICC.

To your other question, I don't have any plans towards Cata, a re-roll is possible if it would fit the guild better. Tbh, hunters dont seem that awesome due to the newly anounced talents. If I however would re-roll, I would prefer a ranged dps. The class doesnt mather that much, the point is to be the best option for the guild. Joining your commiunity as a friend and a dedicated player is the numer 1 goal for me.

We very much like your application and your answers, but we need to have a chat with our other hunter before we can say anything final. Unfortunately he is on holiday in Rome and won’t be back until the beginning of next week.

So we will get back to you sometime early or middle of next week on this one, sorry that it takes a bit of time.

Until then, have a fabulous weekend

Hi again Addict,

I am sorry but I am going to decline you. With our roster filling up quickly we have to save our last few spots for some ranged classes we are still missing, and since we already have a very active hunter we can't find room for another one at this time.

But thanks a lot for you time and the very best of luck in your search for a new guild, hope both you guys find a good home
